Reviews
Followed the recipe except for slicing the mushrooms rather than chopping (personal preference). The green beans were not cooked after 6 minutes, took about another 3 minutes, and by then, the mushrooms were overcooked. Next time, I might just saute the mushrooms, then remove from the skillet, and add back as the green beans are nearing being cooked. Really nice flavor, super easy, and I like the way this recipe breaks down nutritionally.
